I called John to touch base on finishing a intake. Asked about the heads. No one has went all in yet.
This is a little bit I was told. His 440ish sbc has a set of the best canted valve small block heads in existence. "with" 40 hours of welding and doing what he does. It makes like 1240 HP and turns 10K. And pulls over 20" of vacuum at idle WITH no V pump, sick, just sick.
The Pontiac heads would be like them but better in a area or two simply because they are larger so there is more room to do what needs to get done.
Put them on a 565 Pontiac, 125ci larger than the 1240HP sbc and you would have something now. But it would be made to spin 9-10K. Dry sump and all that.
People do not want to deal with a big fat valve cover on a Pontiac too. I say do it, put enough of them out there and it becomes normal.
That said I am rooting for you to blow away NA and boosted Pontiac power records. Luv Dave's work.
Too many Pontiac guys are stuck in the past. The billet heads out there are very expensive too. Not for me but for guys that can afford it and risk spinning their engines more power to them.
The question is where are they legal to run N/A?
